phoneboy3 @shawcable.net	Probably a couple years I would not expect to see any sort of deployments for at least 2 years. Probably more for business/political reasons than technical. They will probably want to get this standardized asap but that will take time. Nothing stopping people from deploying proprietary systems in the mean time though. This is a big deal for underserved communities and ultimately gives us more choice so it's a win win for consumers IMHO.

"The Devil is in the details." While this may prove ideal for some rural areas, "not just WiFi on steroids but on amphetamines" (both references to drug abuse) could mean things could get real ugly in RF congested urban and suburban areas.
